LONDON, November 21.-Two bodies OF
the victims of the sinking of the steamer
w. a. Scholten, by collision with the
steamer Rosa Mary, have hosted ashore at
Deal. There is no doubt that Captain Toal
went Gown with his steamer. Mr.. Robson,
one OF the passengers saved, stated to re-
porter that the w. A. SchoIten had just
weighed anchor when the collision oc-
cured. There were 800 life belts on board
and most Of the passengers were supplied
with them, but they proved useless in q
majority OF cases, and the people were en-
quilted with the ship, The steamers decks
burst when she was laundering. The sunk
en- vessel lies in twenty fathoms of water.
The survivors will sail for New York on
Wednesday. Eighty persons in all have
been saved from the wrecked steamer, w.
\. Scholte1. One of the survivors is
AIMED Rolne. There is another survivor
IN The hospital, whose name Is not known.
Chief engineer, Edixhoven, was landed at
SesfOId, yesterday morning. No more
bodies have been recovered.
STORIES FROM THE ROSA MARY.
l. IL
fault of the collision rests with the steam
err Rosa Mery. Chief mate Wells, of that
vessel, states that she left Hartlepool on
Friday in command of Captain Webster,
and with q crew of sixteen men. On the
night of the collision there was q shifting
fog; sometimes il was dense, while az in.
tervals it was clear. at about 80 o'clock,
he says, the collision occurred. 1--WE had
been at anchor since o'clock. Myself
and the Captain were on the bridge. The
sea was of the caImest. Our lights were
sounding constantly. l first saw the
colliding steamer off our starboard
bow. lShe was showing white
and green lights, indicating that she was
shaping her course to the starboard sidet
We could not shift our position, being al
chored and the tide being ebb. The steamer
soon ported. her helm aud attempted to
cross our bow. Thetide however, not being
rightly judged, settled the vessel on our
bows, cutting her to the waters edge. 1
can not say whether it was the w. A.
Scholten that collided with us. Whatever
vessel it was she proceeded on her course
and soon disappeared in the darkness. We
remained at anchor during the night and
were piloted to Dover at Z o'clock in the
morning. There we locked"
Captain Webster states that the weather
during the voyage was neavy. On Satur-
day morning there was heavy fog and
the Rosa Mary anchored for three hours
off Half Ordeners. She proceeded at IL
o'clock and passed the east Goodwin light
ship at seven in the evening. The fog be-
came 30 thick that she was compell-
ell to sachor again at So clock, the
vessle being then from seven to eight
miles west southwest of the East Goodwin
light. The collision occurred about 1880
p. m. "The forecsstle lookout was the
6rst to intimate the approach of vessel.
1 saw bright white light point and a
half of the starboard bow. Soon
green light appeared indicating
that she was passing our starboard
to the upper bridge and saw the same
lights; suddenly the green light disappear
ed, and red light was shown. Imme-
diately there was terrific collision. Toe
steamer that struck us proceeded, aud no
attempt was made to ascertain what mi ury
had been done. The fog had lifted, reveal
ing the lights plainly. We signalled for
assistance, but none came until morn
ing. During the night number of drift
ing nets caught on the anchor and on the
broken bows"
